sorry but not too excited about this. I don't see how this is a "good hoax".... personally I don't care for cryptic number games, puzzles and riddles.... I enjoy boc for the music. the opening chord of the audio gave me an instant impression of eydiab though, even before I had read that others thought the same thing. the sample is very nice, but I don't believe this is anything official. if it is, I'm a bit disappointed

Gut feeling: Fake


There's a touch of throw in the grenade and stand back and watch the fallout from the OP who hasn't posted since.

Yeah I'm starting to think it's fake. The first post on reddit was about a facebook post with the picture that was apparently deleted. No one else has said anything about this. This original reddit user also has a lot of posts in r/vinyl

http://www.reddit.com/user/budakhan_mindphone

And then some new account comes along claiming to be the person who made the facebook post, and this first guy even reacts to that with "it's a small world"

http://www.reddit.com/r/boardsofcanada/ ... ?context=3

so it's probably actually the same guy.

I think it's legit because BOC are recorded on the 2013 record store day website :

http://recordstoreday.com/Artist/4322

And who, and why , someone will spend money on pressing 6 vinyls with individual code just to have fun of boc fan. I think that the long years of waiting the new Boc are making some of twoism members too much paranoiac :) But's it's totally understandable in the secret and foggy Boc universe.

Its TOO much. Were all losing hope because "this always happens" weve grown used to everything being fake. So we try to find anything thats wrong. Sure there may be fakes coming along(ex: TCH "leak") but everything is adding up.

Wheres MDG?
And now this? Its too much to be a coincidence

But we don't know yet if there are 6. We've only seen one.

And people have claimed there appear to be no grooves on it.

I hope BoC wouldn't be THIS cheesy... It's like an episode of LOST. If J.J. Abrams produced the record, I'm going to be pissed.

If this turns out to be fake, mark my words. I'll drop my pants squat and release my bowls where I stand, whilst staring into the sky screaming.

Until someone pops up with legit proof of finding another copy, there's really no reason to believe this is real.

I want to see a receipt for the record and some more pictures before I get my hopes up. And what about the other side of the record?

i still don't think it's fake
we have multiple pics in different areas, the cover seems legit, it even has the copyright info at the bottom which could get them in legal trouble if this is fake.
we have a vid of it playing with a BOC-ish tune (that is nowhere in eydiab) and the numbers
we have boc's record store day page
i dunno, it's too much effort to go to for something you could've done with photoshop in two minutes.

Hasn't that been there for like a year now? Or did they remove it and put it back?
